To all you CHUfanatics out there. Just wanted to give you all a heads up that starting tonight, we are migrating CHU to it’s new self hosted platform.
What does this all mean?
CHU has grown drastically since it’s beginning and it’s now time to move away from WordPress hosting to our own, which will give us more flexibility and features.
What to expect during the migration?
Not a whole lot actually except wait to see when the new site loads, it looks drastically different as the site got a makeover so you’ll know.
You may hit the old site for the next 24 to 48 hours depending on your ISP DNS and how fast they update them to reflect the IP address change. DNS is a way to translate a domain name (comicsheatingup.net) to an IP address for you non-techies. If you do not see the new website within 48 hours, you may want to clear your browsers cache and cookies.
Your old WordPress login will not work any longer now that CHU will be standalone. We hope to work with WordPress to migrate existing subscribers and such but we not sure how well this will go since it’s in the hands of the WordPress developers and support using their Jetpack plugin.
Once we get settled in, we plan to allow subscribers to sign up so you can have your very own CHU.net login to post comments with, etc.
So please bear with us during this migration which could affect your comments and posting abilities, usernames, etc.
If you use the WordPress Application for Phones and Tablets (Android or Apple), you will no longer be able to follow this site from the app. Not to worry though, the new site is mobile friendly so you can load it in any web browser. I hope to have something in development for a CHU phone app in the coming future.
Sit back and hope you enjoy the new website.

I’ve used the WordPress app, but I’m open to a new mobile-friendly site I can still log into and post my comments on. Will there be a way to get notified if people reply? Maybe an email or such?
Yes, once we enable the subscription to everyone. It will start off with just open comments by filling out the form with Name and Email but in a couple of days we’ll open registration to allow subscribers which should notify you when others make comments, etc.
Delightful, I like knowing when people reply to my comments and questions, so this pleases me!
Congrats on the new site! Looking forward to seeing it.
Dope, cant wait!
Let’s get a shop too.. Some CHU shirts and shit..
That would be rad.
Did I read that correctly? You got a jet pack? Whoa, man. The future is now! PS. Congrats to the Masters of the Chuniverse on the growth and transition. Im very much looking forward to seeing whats in store for “Olive Chu’guys”.
I hope I can edit my comments after posting…that would be a cool feature. So many times I’ve hit send without proofreading and was a victim of fat finger combined with auto correct syndrome…resulting in incoherent sentences.
Sounds great..looking forward to what the new site brings, and congrats on your success!
FYI,
Anyone using Google DNS servers (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4), seems they’re a bit on the slow side at updating these.
If you change your DNS to use 1.1.1.1 as it’s IP address, that one has replicated the new site address.
